Abingdon & Witney College

Our T Level Accounting students stepped into the world of finance during a visit to the Bank of England Museum! 💵

Students explored the Bank's history and role in the UK economy, learning about monetary policy, inflation, gold reserves and banknote production.

They also heard directly from Bank of England staff, gaining first-hand insight into the organisation's responsibilities, career opportunities and the impact of its work on businesses and individuals across the country.

We were so proud to be part of the Sobell House 50th anniversary event at the Westgate Centre last weekend! 🎨

Our Art & Design students displayed and sold a range of Oxfordshire-inspired prints, badges and tote bags, while Media students captured the event on film. Visitors also had the chance to meet Patch, Sobell House's mascot, brought to life by our staff and students!

This collaboration has also seen our Music students compose original pieces to support Sobell House campaigns, demonstrating the wide range of creative talents our students contribute to meaningful community projects.

Thank you to everyone who visited, supported the event and helped raise funds for such an important local charity. 💜

Our Sports and Public Services students and staff came together for a friendly (but competitive!) volleyball match in support of Scoliosis Support & Research. Not only was it a brilliant opportunity to celebrate the end of term, but also to say a heartfelt farewell to a much-valued member of staff as they head into retirement.

The team chose this charity due to its meaningful connection to our college community, and together we were proud to raise £70 for a great cause. 👏

Thank you to everyone who took part and supported! 💪✨
